Hey Jason, I had frogs once, thoght they would be cool to watch eat and stuff, and it was if you bought live food like crickets, one escaped and i found him months later, mumified behind the tv, have you considered geckos, they are cool too. i have a painted turle now, had a snapper, they were cool, crayfish are crazy ass pets, they fight and fun to watch, can get the electric blue lobster and some other cool ones on ebay. of course on mfk you will catch some hell for not throwing an arow in there, but i like to have different stuff sometimes too.. college roomate had turantula, we were always afraid of him and poked him with hangers and stuff, he bit the guy we bought him from, one day this drunk hockey player came over and reached in and was letting "adolf" climb on his face and stuff, was crazy. the tarantual wasnt exactly a chic magent either.
